    Good reptile books?
    Has anyone got favorite reptile books to recommend?

    Right now, I am reading THe Snake Charmer, which is pretty interesting. Would love to read more and hear what others' favorites are.

    The Lizard King was a great read about reptile smuggling.

    VPI's Ball Python book is a great book and the Complete Ball Python by Kevin McCurley is also good.

    I have not yet read Th Lizard King, but it is on my list. I agree that the Barker's book, and Kevin McCurley's book are great (& extremely informative) readings. The Snake Charmer was also a good book.

    "the more complete chondro" by Greg Maxwell! Understanding Reptile Parasites by Roger Klingenberg, and "the lizard king" by Bryan Christy was good too!

    You know, even though I have no Chondros (yet), I really want that book! I see one of those beauties in my future anyway... :D

    The More Complete Chondro is just a great book for reptile lovers who do not 100% despise the green tree python. It's full of a ton of useful information with a lot of personal opinions. It was written very well as a book, and not a care sheet.

    Ball Pythons by Stefan Broghammer 2004. Great pics and info.

    The complete Boa Constrictor by Vincent Russo. Great pics and info as well. As confusing as the Boa Constrictor localities are this helps them straighten out or get more confused.. I guess it depends on how confused you are about them in the first place.
